A system of permanent magnet quadrupoles (PMQs) is going to be realized by INFN-LNS used as a collection for the injection laser driven ion beams up 60 MeV/u in an energy selector based on four resistive dipoles. This first element ELIMED (ELI-Beamlines MEDical and Multidisciplinary applications) beam transport, dosimetry irradiation line that will developed (It) installed at ELI-Beamlines facility Prague (Cz). user's open transport beam-line where controlled laser-driven multidisciplinary...
Charged particle acceleration using ultra-intense and ultra-short laser pulses has gathered a strong interest in the scientific community it is now one of most attractive topics relativistic laser-plasma interaction research. Indeed, could represent future open new scenarios multidisciplinary fields, particular, medical applications. One biggest challenges consists using, perspective, high intensity laser-target to generate high-energy ions for therapeutic purposes, eventually replacing old...
In this work an experimental and theoretical study of gamma-prompt emission has been carried out with the main aim being to understand what extent approach can be used during a treatment based on proton-boron fusion therapy. An campaign, high purity Germanium detector, performed evaluate gamma from two pure 11B 10B targets. Furthermore, set analytical simulations, using Talys nuclear reaction code calculated spectra compared results. These comparisons allowed us successfully validate which...
Recently, an approach exploiting the proton therapy biological enhancement by using Boron atoms injected inside a tumor, has been proposed [1-3]. Here, 11B(p,α)2α nuclear fusion reaction channel, where three alpha particles are produced with average energy around 4 MeV, is considered [4]. These alphas able to penetrate cells nucleus and strongly damage their DNA. In addition, gamma prompts emitted reactions can be used for on-line beam imaging purposes. this work experimental study of prompt...
Nowadays, one of the biggest challenges consists in using high intensity laser-target interaction to generate high-energy ions for medical purposes, eventually replacing old paradigm acceleration characterized by huge and complex machines. In order investigate feasibility laser-driven ion beams multidisciplinary application, a dedicated beam transport line will be installed at ELI-Beamlines facility Prague (CZ), as part User-oriented ELIMAIA beam-line their potential applications. The...
